Yup, it wasn't me, I know better. The problem is NOT pre-heating the mold enough. You're shearing 6 sprues all at once, if the lead is too cold, it takes a lot of force to break them all.

I sent lee an email with that picture, they replied they were sending me a replacement. 3 days late TWO new levers came in the mail.
